title: (E)-Benz-yl(1-phenyl-ethyl-idene)amine.
abstract: The title compound, C15H15N, represents an E isomer. The mol-ecule exhibits a minor [9.1 (2)%] disorder with methyl-benzyl-idene and benzyl groups inter-changing their positions. The C=N bond length is 1.292 (2) Å. The mol-ecular geometry is essentially planar, with the maximal twist of 8.5 (3)° for the benzyl group. The herringbone packing arrangement does not exhibit any π-stacking inter-actions.
